MODEL TEC21

TEC CHALLENGES YOU

Our challenge-based educational model develops the competencies that will enable you to face up to the opportunities and challenges of the 21st century creatively and strategically.

With an education that will accompany you throughout your life, our aim is for you to be aware of the needs of the environment, acquire a systemic vision of problems and develop the ability to solve them.

Right from the first semester, you will be participating in activities to develop your ability to identify opportunities, find resources, take risks and recover from failure.

In addition, the model empowers you to make more decisions about your university studies as you progress, in order to develop a unique profile.

A challenge is an opportunity to learn something new and reinforce what you already know. To solve it, you need to apply yourself, investigate and interact in the “real world”. You won’t be on your own: you will have a set of personal and technological resources and tools, as well as the advice of faculty who will accompany you throughout the process. Its resolution implies a certain degree of difficulty and a duration that will awaken your interest and enthusiasm and produce a sense of achievement.

C O M P E T E N C I E S T H AT M A K E Y O U U N I Q U E

At Tecnológico de Monterrey, we have defined, after consulting leaders from diverse sectors and employers, seven competencies that all our students should possess. Regardless of which degree you are studying, the educational model anticipates that you will develop them through diverse challenges, courses and activities related to your university experience. They are:

1. Self-knowledge and management 2. Innovative entrepreneurship 3. Social intelligence

4. Commitment to ethics and citizenship 5. Reasoning for complexity

6. Communication 7. Digital transformation

These seven competencies, together with the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values related to the area of Built Environment and your degree, will be your letter of introduction and your passport in the professional world.

STEP-BY-STEP RECORD OF YOUR LEARNING

While you are at university, you will keep a record in your competency file of the degree of progress you have made and the supporting evidence. Taking responsibility for creating this file will, from this very moment, be extremely useful when you join the workforce.

SPECIALIZATION

IN THE TOPIC OR TOPICS OF GREATEST INTERES T TO YOU

Your curriculum will be a non-linear educational, dynamic and flexible experience. You will enjoy more time and more elements to know and mature your degree choice, as well as to discover and capitalize all the opportunities you have to personalize your degree program.

The model is comprised of three stages and, from the first semester, you will experience educational units (courses and blocks) that have clearly defined, individual and collaborative project- and task-oriented competency development objectives (knowledge, skills, attitudes and values). In the “blocks”, you will be tackling challenges connected to reality, working

collaboratively with the support of a group of faculty who will guide your learning and, at the end, evaluate your competencies together with you and your peers.

These challenges, apart from being attractive, are comprehensive experiences, since they will drive you and your peers to observe reality, map situations, diagnose problems, reflect, dialogue and confront ideas on theories and techniques to solve these problems, while experiencing, designing and producing prototypes and solutions, within a reflective, applicative dynamic in which you can take risks and make mistakes and adjustments to achieve the objective.

Currently, over half the population live in cities and by 2050 this figure will reach 70 %.

As global urbanization continues to grow, the challenges of orderly, sustainable and inclusive urban development grow day by day. Cities drive the economies, regional development, innovation, job creation and, consequently, social wellbeing of the leading countries.

Therefore, it is crucial for cities to enhance their inhabitants’ quality of life by respecting the environment, while fomenting sustainable economic development.

As part of the Built Environment area,

students will not only understand the factors that determine the development of cities in their diverse scales, but also be capable of analytically and systemically tackling the urban challenges of the future, through

multidisciplinary collaboration with other areas of knowledge.
